Changing default syntax --> Twiki/1.0

I’m migrating from TWiki → XWiki 10.8.1 – if anyone has a good process to do this in bulk, please let me know. The python script I found requires a lot of work, and my searches aren’t turning up much else.

I’ve been trying to enable the Twiki/1.0 syntax to see if pages will display correctly copy-n-pasting the source, but I’m not getting very far.

I updated xwiki.cfg: xwiki.rendering.syntaxes = xwiki/2.1, twiki/1.0, per a note here:

But after restarting the container, I’m still not seeing Twiki/1.0 as an option here:

/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?editor=globaladmin&section=Syntaxes

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks!
Reece

Indeed, you need to install the TWiki Syntax extension in your wiki. We were missing it on extensions.xwiki.org so you had to do an advanced search. I’ve now created it (see https://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/XWiki%20Rendering%20-%20Syntax%20-%20TWiki/), so you can simply search for “TWiki” inside the Extension Manager in your XWiki instance.
